Christopher Webb: There's a new alignment happening and it's not about left or center [View all]

DEMOCRATS WOULD BE WISE TO PAY ATTENTION TO THIS…

There’s a new alignment happening and it’s not about left or center. Rank-and-file Dems want two things:

📌Leaders who stand with workers
📌And who stand up to Trump

If you’re not doing either, expect to get primaried.

Watch…

We don’t need a new logo or a fresh slogan. We need leaders who fight. For workers. For democracy. For our lives.

If this reboot doesn’t come with fire, it’s not what we’re looking for.
